Sailing
Join us for an incredible sailing adventure aboard Anam Cara with Dan and Robyn.
The afternoon sun filters across the deck as the boat gently turns with a subtle touch at the wheel. The sails fill as you settle into a new tack. The engine stops and you enter the silence. You feel the raw power of wind behind you.
You feel more alive in this shimmering diamond field of light and waves.
Would you like to create a magical memory with loved ones and friends?
Are you longing for an opportunity to find some peace?
Curious to learn more about the remarkable art of sailing?
Would you love to have a rewarding time with wind, water and waves?

Learn about Sailing, navigating life, and SOULFUL FRiendship
We sail on South Okanagan Lake on ‘Anam Cara’, our safe and stable 46’ Hunter 460 sailing yacht.
During the day, we will share in some basic sailing and navigation techniques, and you will get a chance for some hands on learning. Guests are encouraged to participate in the sailing as much as desired.
We offer more than just sailing too! Explore how to better navigate your life. Learn how to better respond to the winds of change. We bring together the skill of sailing and the art of wisdom: ‘sailing with soul’. It is a mix of water, waves, sunshine, laughter, learning, friendship and also a meaningful encounter with one another.
Why is our sailboat named Anam Cara? An anam cara is Gaelic for a devoted companion: a friend that relies on the experiences of equity, silence, wit, fierce kindness, recognition and belonging.. A soulful friendship “awakens my life in order to free the wild possibilities within me.” Friendship is grounded in mutuality and reciprocal learning. The arts of accompaniment, presence and regard are at the core of this relationship.
